The job
In our farm, these products are typically cultivated and harvested from November to August, first to avoid hurricane season and second to accomodate the market oportunities offered during the winter and spring months, as production in the mainland declines. Farm workers: prepare the soil for planting (including grafting and nursery) and harvesting farinaceous (plantain) and fruits (such as pineapple, passion fruit, avocado, orange, lemon, soursop, and coconut). Most of the workdays are spent on one's feet and constant movement outdoors. Workers are rarely in one place as they move, often walking from one field to another for any period. Workers must be able to stand, walk uphill and downhill, sit, sloop, squat, kneel, crouch, bend (from the waist) push, pull, reach, lift, and carry items weighing in the range of 5 to 75 pounds. Driving and operating passenger vehicles and farm equipment may be required. Workers are required to work eight (8) hours per day. The worker may be requested, but not required, to work 12 hours per day and/or Federal Holidays, as well as Saturdays, depending upon the conditions in the fields, weather, and maturity of the crop. The manager or supervisor will advise workers at the end of the workday if there is any change in start time, and anticipated hours of work for the following day. Regular attendance by all workers during scheduled hours of the workday and/or work period is expected. Unsatisfactory attendance: including reporting late, excessive requests to leave before the end of the workday, not abiding by housing, or transport regulations, etc., may be cause for disciplinary action. Providing services to other farmers outside the scope of the H2A Visa will result in immediate contract termination. Workers must call their manager or supervisor at least one day before the start of the workday if they do not expect to be in on time. Further information on the Employer's Attendance Policy is in the Employee Handbook.
